Abstract: This project, conducted under the guidance of the University of Nebraska--Lincoln, was carried out in order to investigate how eating a plant--based diet rich in fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes, a diet that has been proven to prevent and reverse heart disease, will affect the lipid levels and overall heath of a younger person not showing signs of heart disease.In addition, this project aims to validate the implications of consuming processed oils on a regular basis and to increase overall awareness of the foods that we consume by advocating for a healthier overall way of life for the human population and the environment.This is a very important and pertinent issue that currently distresses many Americans and affects not only adults, but also children in schools and playgrounds across the country.There is sufficient evidence surfacing across the medical community stating that coronary artery disease, obesity, high blood pressure, heart attacks, and other conditions and diseases that are running rampant across America can be slowed or even completely reversed with a simple change in diet.No pills, no shots, just food.The following program goes into detail providing evidence for these claims and advocates for a healthier and more informed nation and lifestyle.
